The better understanding of the spatial and temporal distribution of mortality from cardiovascular diseases in the Brazilian elderly population is essential to support more appropriate health actions for each region of the country. Objective: To describe and to compare geospatially the rates of mortality from cardiovascular disease in elderly individuals living in Brazil by gender in two 5-year periods: 1996 to 2000 and 2006 to 2010. Methods: This is an ecological study, for which rates of mortality were obtained from DATASUS and the population rates from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística).

The spatial autocorrelation was evaluated by TerraView 4.2.0 through global Moran index and the formation of clusters by the index of local Moran-LISA. Results: There was an increase, in the second 5-year period, in the mortality rates in the Northeast and North regions, parallel to a decrease in the South, South-East and Midwest regions. Moreover, there was the formation of clusters with high mortality rates in the second period in Roraima among females, and in Ceará, Pernambuco and Roraima among males.

Background: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in Brazil. The better understanding of the spatial and temporal distribution of mortality from cardiovascular diseases in the Brazilian elderly population is essential to
support more appropriate health actions for each region of the country.
Objective: To describe and to compare geospatially the rates of mortality from cardiovascular disease in elderly
individuals living in Brazil by gender in two 5-year periods: 1996 to 2000 and 2006 to 2010.
Methods: This is an ecological study, for which rates of mortality were obtained from DATASUS and the population rates
from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística). An average mortality
rate for cardiovascular disease in elderly by gender was calculated for each period. The spatial autocorrelation was
evaluated by TerraView 4.2.0 through global Moran index and the formation of clusters by the index of local Moran-LISA.
Results: There was an increase, in the second 5-year period, in the mortality rates in the Northeast and North regions,
parallel to a decrease in the South, South-East and Midwest regions. Moreover, there was the formation of clusters
with high mortality rates in the second period in Roraima among females, and in Ceará, Pernambuco and Roraima
among males.
Conclusion: The increase in mortality rates in the North and Northeast regions is probably related to the changing
profile of mortality and improvement in the quality of information, a result of the increase in surveillance and health
care measures in these regions. (Arq Bras Cardiol. 2015; 105(4):371-380) |
